ElECU IS HOW UNDER FIRE Fraud in Test of Fire Alarm Boxes for the City Is Suspected. Official action Tin. at lust hum by the fire committee of th executive ooara toward probing the unofficial test of fire alarm boxes held October 17. P. B. Su'livan submitted the report which indicates that City Electrician Bavarian was either lax in his methods or criminally complaisant. . Bids for fire alarm boxes were mad-) by two companies, the Star and the Game well. In October. The Gamewell company agent stated that the two makes of boxes would not work on the same system because of interference. To demonstrate that the boxes nnniii not Interfere the Star agent asked for a test. This was made before the fire committee in the city hall. Repeated trials showed that there was Interference every time an alarm was turned In. G. E. Morley, who had come out from New York to represent the Star company at the test emphat ically -declared that the Gamewell box had been tampered with and "fixed." He asked for a private test Before this reauest cam the exenntlvn hoard had already awarded the contract to the Gamewell comDanv. its bid helnir the lowest, but Mayor Lane thought It would oniy do rair to give tne boxes another trial. -" Present at thla trial wera thu nttv electrician, the mayor and members of the fire committee and G. E. Morley, the expert of the Star company. The boxes were connected un and worked perfectly. Morley then manipulated a screw in the Gamewell box and "in terference" was immediately noted. Mor ley asserts that this screw was manln- ulated In the official test so as to dis credit nis company wltn the city. Mr. Sullivan s report, or a copy of it, will be sent to the Star company to be used by it in controverting any claims that the Gamewell comDanv mav hern- after make' on the grounds that the of- nciai test in rortiana snowed that the boxes of the two companies will no work in harmony. - den attack of heart disease.
